Commons:Wiki Loves Monuments 2018 in Sweden
Wiki Loves Monuments is an international photographic competition to promote heritage sites around the world through Wikimedia projects (mainly Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons). Everybody can participate. There are a lot of heritage sites in all participating countries. The goal of Wiki Loves Monuments is to encourage people to take pictures of those monuments, and to put them under a free license so that others may access them through the Internet. To achieve that, an international contest will take place from 1 September 2018 to 30 September 2018. This page introduces the Swedish part of this competition.
In September, you may upload as many pictures as you want of monuments that you have visited. Pictures don't have to be taken in September, but must be uploaded during that month to be considered. Provide your photo with {{Wiki Loves Monuments 2018|SE}}
template. At the end of the month, the contest jury will begin evaluating the photographs and will choose the best 10 pictures of the cultural sites in Sweden, and ultimately in the world.
